NATCHEZ — The Adams County Board of Supervisors hired a new County Administrator on Monday to fill the position being vacated by Joe Murray.

The board hired the county comptroller Angie Isaac King to the County Administrator position at a rate of $80,000 per year by a vote of 4-1 with District 1 Supervisor Wes Middleton voting “nay” during Monday’s regularly scheduled meeting.

Murray announced in early June that he would be retiring next month after having served 9 years as County Administrator.
